I wouldn't call pgsql support in PHP stone age :) I do think that this would be a very nice addition to php 5.1.
A few questions: Why do we need pg_query_params. Isn't prepare/execute enough? pg_execute($conn, $stmt, $params) seem to be already taking care of the parameters passed. (btw. I wouldn't make $conn optional, it makes adding additional parameters later on pain). How does this work over persistent connections? AFAIK trying to prepare a statment with the same name on the same connection will result in an error.
